In other words do you use wan port or any lan port in a wifi router when using as a access point
If I understand the question correctly, you are also wanting the WiFi router to be switched into "wireless bridge" mode. This is not simple. It typically means going deep into the router settings to turn it from a server into a client.

Check out this how to for the Nighthawk.

EDIT: I should add, for the cost and the hassle involved, most people prefer to run tethered to their mobile phone.
